Conclusion. 330 $aThis book outlines a new model for global social justice movements that is based on Freud and Lacan?s central insights regarding the unconscious, repetition, drives, and transference. Since most of our current social issues are global in nature, Bob Samuels convincingly argues that we need a global solution, but that global solidarity is blocked by narcissistic nationalism and the capitalist death drive. In examining contemporary social movements for global justice, Samuels articulates a comprehensive theory of non-pathological social solidarity, and argues that in the age of multinational corporations and global climate change, we need a new model of global justice and government that requires an understanding of analytic neutrality and free association. This book uses psychoanalytic theories and practices to explain how someone like Trump can rise to power, and explores why liberals have failed to provide a convincing or effective political alternative. It will be compelling reading to students and teachers in a range of psychological and political disciplines, and to anyone interested in psychoanalysis and current politics. Robert Samuels teaches writing at the University of California, Santa Barbara, USA. He is also President of UC-AFT, the union representing 4,000 librarians and lecturers (non-tenured faculty) in the UC system, and has authored seven books, including Why Public Higher Education Should Be Free. . 410 0$aCritical Theory and Practice in Psychology and the Human Sciences 606 $aCritical psychology 606 $aPsychoanalysis 606 $aPolitical theory 606 $aSocial justice 606 $aHuman rights 606 $aCritical Psychology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/Y20170 606 $aPsychoanalysis$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H54026 606 $aPolitical Theory$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/911010 606 $aSocial Justice, Equality and Human Rights$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X33070 615 0$aCritical psychology. 615 0$aPsychoanalysis. 615 0$aPolitical theory. 615 0$aSocial justice. 615 0$aHuman rights. 615 14$aCritical Psychology. 615 24$aPsychoanalysis. 615 24$aPolitical Theory. 615 24$aSocial Justice, Equality and Human Rights. 676 $a150.19 700 $aSamuels$b Robert$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0614320 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910739446403321 996 $aPsychoanalyzing the Left and Right after Donald Trump$91733553 997 $aUNINA
